Now that we can customise the “Community” part of the sidebar I noticed that the default description for /latest is “Latest Topics”. On Meta, it’s “Topics”. On my forum’s top menu tabs I called /latest “Latest Posts” (shorthand for topics with the most recent posts, I suppose) and /new “New topics”…

not exactly sure what you are asking but i renamed the Topics / Latest Topics navigation sidebar menu link on my forum as “Recent / Unread” because it toggles between new and latest. i also hid that top section from anon users and made a custom global section for everyone.

IDK i’ve renamed that Topic thing a dozen times now i think. :upside_down_face: i want to override the user settings for that thing simply because i can’t find a good name for that Latest topic link. wasn’t that the “everything” linked to that experimental topics filter setting? like i’m a bit c…

Haha I think we must be over thinking it! Yes I think it used to be “Everything”… I can see why they just call it “Topics” here now. I think I’ll follow that.

i love that we can customize all the things in there. but i’m not sure i like the dynamic behavior part or at least then putting control of that in the user’s preferences.

Another setting that may be of interest is the new experimental new new view group which combines new and unread together.

yea that is what i was talking about here but i remembered after that it’s different than the dynamic latest filter [image] Description of /latest and /new pages Support IDK i’ve renamed that Topic thing a dozen times now i think. upside_down_face i wan…
